A number of users have been experiencing issues with KDE across a variety of
hardware with nouveau. My current advice is to either not use KDE or not use
nouveau_dri.so. [It's most likely not KDE's fault, but this is the present
reality.]

Separately, OpenSuSE included some patches of mine in their Mesa builds that
address some but hardly all of the issues involved. I believe the approach to
be fundamentally flawed and in need of redoing. (The latest may be that they
have dropped those.)
